This bring macOS on par with Windows and Linux. It uses the OpenMP library
added to our precompiled libraries.
Custom flags are set because FindOpenMP from CMake below 3.12 does not support
AppleClang, and more recent versions do not work with our custom directory
location either.

Note that this is turned off by default and must be enabled at build time with the CMake WITH_CYCLES_EMBREE flag.
Embree must be built as a static library with ray masking turned on, the `make deps` scripts have been updated accordingly.
There, Embree is off by default too and must be enabled with the WITH_EMBREE flag.
Using Embree allows for much faster rendering of deformation motion blur while reducing the memory footprint.
TODO: GPU implementation, deduplication of data, leveraging more of Embrees features (e.g. tessellation cache).

Mainly this is following Linux to build own xml2/lzma/ssl/sqlite and linking
them all statically. This ensures the Python ssl module uses a recent openssl
version rather than a very old one shipped with macOS.
-No more hardcoded python35/36 tokens in the scripts
-disabled python module for boost, was not used
-Updated patches for python to support building with msvc2013
We stop using the .zip file and just have all files now in
lib/darwin/python/lib, along with numpy, numpy headers and requests.
This makes it consistent with Linux and simplifies code.
For old libraries the .zip stays, code for that gets removed when we
fully switch to new libraries.
Note these are intended for platform maintainers, we do not intend to
support users making their own builds with these. For that precompiled
libraries from lib/ should be used.
Implemented by Martijn Berger, Ray Molenkamp and Brecht Van Lommel.
